The replication package for the article �Beyond innumeracy: Measuring public misperceptions about immigration� contains an R-code file �code_replication.R� that can be executed with the following dataset:

Ernst St�hli, Mich�le, Sapin, Marl�ne, Pollien, Alexandre, Ochsner, Michael, and Nisple, Karin. (2024). MOSAiCH 2023. Measurement and Observation of Social Attitudes in Switzerland.  Study on National Identity and Citizenship and related topics. (Version 1.0.0) [Dataset]. Lausanne: FORS data service. https://doi.org/10.48573/ae9w-0w40 (file name: "2503_MOSAiCH2023_Data_v1.0.sav")

One part of the analysis uses additional time-stamp data that linked to the dataset. (file name: "mosaich_time_stamps.dta")

Both datasets can be accessed by request to FORS in Lausanne (Switzerland) via SwissUbase (https://www.swissubase.ch/en/), catalogue entry 20527.

The data files should be placed in the root-folder to execute the replication code.

Note that Table A2 was manually constructed based on the output created by the data and code of this replication material.
